Judge Orders Bannon’s Sugar Daddy to Cough Up $134 Million Over Notorious Yacht
Daily Beast ^ | Feb 10, 2022 | William Bredderman

A judge on Thursday issued a furious order targeting a Chinese billionaire and ally of Steve Bannon, a member of Donald Trump’s inner circle, ordering him to either pay $134m or face arrest for his violation of a previous court order.

In a ruling, a judge from the New York County Supreme Court excoriated Guo Wengui for hiding billions of dollars’ worth of assets around the US and elsewhere including in the form of a superyacht named the Lady May. Judge Barry Ostrager faulted Mr Guo in his ruling for hiding the craft outside of US jurisdiction in the Bahamas in violation of a previous order.

“Those proceedings established, among other things, that Kwok exercised dominion and control over a yacht called the Lady May and resulted in a series of orders restraining [Guo] and/or the registered owners of the yacht called Lady May from removing the Lady May from the Court’s jurisdiction,” wrote the judge.

Nevertheless, “[Guo] and his cohorts made arrangement for the Lady May to sail to Florida in early October 2020 and, thereafter, to the Bahamas,” the court filing continues, adding that a subsequent judgement ordered Mr Guo to return the yacht to US waters or face a fine of $500,000 per day.

That fine has now compounded to a $134m fee that Mr Guo was ordered on Thursday to pay within five business days, or risk arrest.

“The Court has the authority to hold [Mr Guo] in civil contempt ... and ‘“to punish [him], by fine and imprisonment’”, wrote the judge.

Mr Guo subsequently announced plans to flee the US on a livestream first reported by J Michael Waller of the Center for Security Policy, where he reportedly talked about leaving for Japan or possibly the UK.

“Nope. Suit filed in New York by a company with offices in New York on a person residing in New York.”

You apparently lack the ability to see anything in depth beyond the mere surface.

Just look at Gator on the Waco massacre threads

He believes anything that emanates from govt law enforcement

This Guo situation is cray cray with intrigue from every angle

The pressure to get this guy from the CCP is intense

Original lawsuit was for a pittance of this crazy amount from this judge and will not stand

The judge excoriated him for hiding billions from the CCP

wow what a crime ..

Real issue is he has things on the ruling class of Chinas Marxist oligarchy feudal masters they do not like him having

Putin would likely have asssasinated him by now

Big shock he’s found an ally in Bannon lol

Our ruling elite have sold out to China markets and cheap labor and political donations

It’s not complicated

And this guy is a burr under their fat traitorous asses including as many GOPe as Dems

Somebody prove me wrong
